FRAMEmethods delivers comprehensive integration solutions by defining roadmaps and collaborating with client teams to implement and optimize. Our methods prioritize definition of process, exposure of gaps, collaborative solving with all stakeholders and iterative build cycles (incremental work product). Our goal is to establish a well architected integration environment and enable the client to self-sustain.


The following tells a bit more about our services:

Forensics & Evaluation

We take a to-the-root approach to understanding our clients’ data system needs. At the onset of a project, we take a deep dive into our clients’ current systems, purposes, and processes. 

 

We understand that every organization is different, with different needs and data systems. Our analysis team uses a variety of assessment and discovery methods to identify pain points, their root causes, and potential pathways to efficiency and ease of use. This forensics stage helps both us and the client better understand how things are currently working, why, and how they can be optimized. 

 

FRAMEmethods does not sell software. Rather, we employ a comprehensive methodology for connecting software products in a manner that is directly responsive to the unique histories, challenges, and goals of each organization. Sometimes, our forensics analysis helps organizations discover ways to meet their needs without any further customizations. 

 

We’ll never try to sell you a new car when your current ride just needs a tune-up. For others, a back-to-the-blueprints approach is needed.

Architecture & Implementation

We know that for data-driven organizations, there is no such thing as a single system. Most organizations operate with a constellation of 5 or more key data systems all of which meet functional or departmental specific needs. 


We also know the challenges that come with maintaining multiple manual data systems, including frustration, inefficiency, and increased human error. FRAMEmethods restructures how different data systems work together. We build customized Integration Frames to integrate data between systems and automate the flow of data between them. Integration Frames are more powerful than traditional database migrations or conversions.


Our data architects design durable, sustainable structural integrations that go beyond “making systems talk” to each other. Our expert team creates lasting structures that make working with data as easy and efficient as possible so that change-making organizations can reach their fullest capacity.


Deliverables from this type of engagement include:

  • Current and Future State Architectures
  • Operationalize a Feature Release Cadence
  • Manage Design-Build-Test-Deploy
  • Manage Feature Backlog and Prioritizing
  • Deliver Training
  • Coaching and Transfer of Information to Client Teams
  • On-Going Support (Advisory, Technical, Monitoring)
